Friday Weekly Maintenance Weigh-In - Page 32

emslight · 04-27-2009, 09:31 AM

131 on Friday but the usual pound gain after the w.e. so now 132 (first BBQ of the summer - too much food, too much wine

)

Kissa · 04-28-2009, 11:21 AM

Sounds fun Ems. Now that I am back from South America the lovely warm English spring seem to have left us.

Will weigh in on Friday everyone, not looking foraward to it but I did have the most wonderful vacation!

Stargazey · 05-01-2009, 07:51 AM

134.4 this week.

BellaHMB · 05-01-2009, 08:01 AM

Havent weighed in yet, will tomorrow (husband sleeping!) but its been
a good week!

Ailuros · 05-01-2009, 08:05 AM

I was 117.4 this morning. Up from a couple of weeks ago, but I think that one was just unusually low because I'd had an upset stomach for a few days. I'm now eating again

and back in the 116-118 band where I've been for the last couple of years.

TheWildHaggis · 05-01-2009, 09:08 AM

I'm continuing to hold fast weight wise. It could be because any change in my intake has been offset with more movement on my part. I'm comfortable and with only 256 weeks left before I call this a success, why change.

mac24312 · 05-01-2009, 11:34 AM

Happy Friday all!

New Low...128.5...Very happy with that. I am only eating when hungry and until full now...about 1 time a day for me and NO LC sweets...

Have a great weekend everyone!

Kissa · 05-01-2009, 03:31 PM

135 which is great after a month's vacation!!!

Loretta V · 05-01-2009, 04:01 PM

117 this am, only due to not eating because of a resp illness. All I do is cough, cough and more coug. The doc put me on several meds, anbiotic, inhaler and OTC musanix.
Can't stay up for any lenght of time since Sunday. Wearing out the bed. NO exerercise of any sort. Doing anything takes a lot of effort.

This to shall pass.

Kissa · 05-01-2009, 04:15 PM

Oh Loretta do get well, take care of yourself lady.

Alison Jean 71 · 05-01-2009, 06:27 PM

122.2 I was 121 on Monday but it did not hold.

Prairieprof · 05-02-2009, 08:04 AM

117.4 this morning; I'm pleased with that as it was up some in the last week.

fischdeb1 · 05-02-2009, 10:08 AM

Feel better, Loretta!

131 Fri. morning. That's fine!
Deb

fischdeb1 · 05-02-2009, 10:18 AM

I just went all the way back to when I first started posting on this thread. I began posting my weight 9/8/08. I was 131. That's exactly what I am now! So it's more than 8 months that I have been maintaining. I got down to 131 around July/08.

This is a first for me. I was never able to maintain this long!....a month or two tops!

Thanks to this thread! You guys make me feel accountable and reading your success stories keeps me encouraged!

Thanks!
Deb

Kissa · 05-02-2009, 10:57 AM

WTG Deb!

Fitterly · 05-02-2009, 03:51 PM

doing terribly with diet for about 2 weeks now... really bad this past week. for some reason LC wasn't palitable to me

I'm about 129 pounds now. LCing is going to be tough since I went SO off the wagon.

I kind of allowed myself a diet hiatus but I'm hoping the self-disgust will kick in. I am totally out of food so it's time to start diet-recipe hunting and getting my arse in GEAR.

Kissa · 05-03-2009, 11:15 AM

Fitterly, we all have bad times but this is the place to come for support.

I have been following IE for a while and it is good for me. If you are having problems with LC have a look over at the IE thread (Intuitive Eating) it may help, or maybe not. No harm in looking.

fischdeb1 · 05-08-2009, 04:26 AM

130 this morning! Yahoo!

Alison Jean 71 · 05-08-2009, 06:49 AM

Stargazey · 05-08-2009, 07:35 AM

129.9 today.

TheWildHaggis · 05-08-2009, 07:51 AM

I've changed a few things up ahead of a blood test. For my troubles, I'm up 6.5 since last week to 178 all the while my kcal count has stayed steady. My guess it's all water and will drop once my ratios come back inline after the test (in 5 weeks.) At least, that is the hope.

BellaHMB · 05-08-2009, 08:56 AM

145. I dont seem to have the oomph to get back to 140. Everything fits so its hard
to be motivated!

Bella

Loretta V · 05-08-2009, 10:42 AM

117 and still not feeling well. Got a call from the doc this am and they are putting me on another antibiotic since my sputum culture grew out some bugs.

WTG Deb on maintaining for the past 8 months. You are on your way.

Hang in there fitterly. Just try to change some food choices around for a while and then get back to just cutting the carbs. Hope it works for you.

mac24312 · 05-08-2009, 10:49 AM

128.5 still with TOM here..I will take it hope to be down some next week..

Happy Mother's Day everyone!

Prairieprof · 05-09-2009, 09:06 AM

119.0 with TOM (and some ice cream from the local dairy last night!). I think so, anyway -- my new scale is driving me as nuts as my old one with unreliable readings.

Fitterly · 05-09-2009, 10:37 AM

Hello maintainers

I decided not to "binge" this week but to eat whatever I felt like at that moment. I wound up losing more weight. My stomach is flat as a pancake. What's weird is I've been eating Little Debbie snack cakes every night. I guess my craving carbs is my body telling me I need some more variety in there. I've also been eating whole wheat bagels for dinner. So I think I need to add in carbs (only at night, during the day it makes me sleepy).

It's fun to think i have a new diet!!!

Weight today was 125.9 but that is after a pretty heavy meal last night with a lot of carbies. :-)

Fitterly · 05-09-2009, 10:37 AM

thanks for the support!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

fischdeb1 · 05-13-2009, 07:17 PM

Christina, are you a teacher? What grade do you teach? I teach first grade.
Deb

mac24312 · 05-14-2009, 04:51 AM

No..I am not but that is my son's Pre-K Group picture...
